Description

Situé au 3ème et dernier étage avec ascenseur d'une copropriété de 1988 parfaitement entretenue, cet appartement traversant de 88 m² Carrez offre un potentiel rare au coeur du 12ème arrondissement, à quelques pas seulement des métros Bel-Air et Daumesnil et sectorisé sur les meilleures écoles du secteur.<br>Derrière son agencement familial classique se cache un potentiel devenu rare à Paris : la structure permet d'abattre les cloisons de l'espace jour pour créer une spectaculaire pièce de vie de plus de 45 m² exposée Sud-Est (réunissant entrée, cuisine indépendante, bureau indépendant et salon).<br>Côté nuit, l'appartement révèle un véritable havre de paix. Deux des trois chambres s'ouvrent au Nord-Ouest sur un espace extérieur inattendu, plongeant directement sur la végétation d'un immense jardin voisin. Le calme y règne, sans aucun vis-à-vis direct sur cette façade. L'appartement dispose également d'une salle de bains, d'une salle d'eau et de toilettes séparées (rafraîchies il y a 1 an).<br>Fort d'un bon diagnostic de performance énergétique (DPE D accessible C après remplacement du ballon et des convecteurs) garantissant un bon confort thermique, ce bien est accompagné d'une grande cave saine, et d'une place de parking en sous-sol (possibilité d'acquérir l'appartement sans la place de parking, avec une déduction sur le prix de vente).<br>Copropriété de 33 lots (Pas de procédure en cours).<br>Charges annuelles : 3960.00 euros.

Next steps for moving to France

Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.

1

Understand the buying rules

Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.

2

Sort out your visa

Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.

3

Plan your finances

Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.

4

Know your tax obligations

US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.

5

Set up healthcare

Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.

6

Run the full checklist

Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
